TRIGGERS: Pi-0, Single-cluster and Cosmic = In case of trigger problems, power hits or if reloading is needed, CONTACT: Paul Kingsberry, TC16, Room 95, 269-5023 PAGER: 584-5775 - For trigger logic, see www.jlab.org/primex/subsystems/electronics/, Itaru Nakagawa's Diagrams of the HYCAL trigger & associated logic: MLU Bit Assignments (note: MLU3A bit 2 out is our preferred trigger - any 2 hits anywhere, i.e. any MLU3A input) Horizontal/Vertical Trigger Strip Groups; HYCAL Trigger Groups. - Logic Summary: HYCAL dynode signals -> summers (UVA120A) -> "groups" -> summer/discriminators (UVA125A) - > "strips" or discriminator (Phillips 7106) for single glass groups -> 3 Memory Look-up Units (CAMAC Caen C542), 2 sections each - outputs controlled by 1 set of 6 programs loaded via LabView. - MLU CAMAC slot allocations: MLU1 (horizontal strips and separated glass groups): CAMAC slot 18 MLU2 (vertical strips and separated glass groups): CAMAC slot 20 MLU3 (master): CAMAC slot 22 -> 4 triggers selectable without reprogramming/reloading (4 different Master MLU3 bits -> Trigger Supervisor): MLU3B0 Single-cluster; MLU3B1 Cosmics; 2 PI-0 TRIGGERS (2 clusters) - --------------- MLU3A2 1) ANY 2 strips/glass-groups firing in any MLU section, ----- adjacent or non-adjacent (minimum bias); MLU3A0 2) ANY 2 GLASS strips/groups firing in either MLU (horiz/vert), ----------- adjacent glass-tungstate strips firing, NON-ADJACENT TUNGSTATE strips firing, either MLU, or adjacent pairs both horizontally & vertically. [A 3rd pi-0 trigger is also currently available from MLU3A1 but is seriously flawed both in its design acceptance and its implementation in the integrated program. Due to the requirements of the development and increased acceptance of triggers 1 & 2 with limited MLU inputs, optimal implement- ation of Trigger #3 (within the limits of its design acceptance) would require the loading of other, archived MLU programs. MLU3A1 3) NON-ADJACENT strips/glass-groups firing, glass and W, ------------ or adjacent pairs both horizontally & vertically (W)]
